I used to twirl the high school bass on my feet as I laid on my back during a school play in 1958, but this is outrageous..!! I never dropped the bass in 58 and lived to play it for another 50 years...-Ron McClure
This lady is an athlete. She deserves the highest praise for her act, but I agree with Bassphil, I will NEVER rent my bass to a traveling show or anyone else. My bass is a swellback not a flatback, which is what she juggles.
She's spinning that heavy doghouse around directly over her face. If she misses with her feet, the bass will be ok because it will land on her not the stage. In fact it'll flatten her nose.
I wonder how many times she had a bloody nose before she got the routine right?
Yeah, I wonder how many basses she smashed whilst learning that AMAZING routine - I mean who would ever THINK of getting a bass & doing that shit with it!! :-D
I wonder if she started out with a paper-maché bass... then maybe she graduated on to one of those metal basses B4 gettin' to the wood
Oh, wow! It's so amazing that you know her history! How do you know? Do you know her/them? In fact I'm not even sure which language that is at the top - is it Russian, Polish, Czech...? I'd LOVE to see them live. Hope they come to NY someday :)
Thx for the extra info - very interesting, & yes, t IS an AMAZING vid
Aaaahh, ha, ha, haaaa!!! That's the best comment I've ever seen on Youtube, BassPhil. (I think I might know who you are - I think I just emailed this to you...?) Funny!
Amazing job!!! Thank you!

Looking closely, that bass appears to have seen quite a few repairs.

Is it really a real one? Mustn´t the wood be thinner than in an original one? It looks so light and easy!

I've been looking for a good workout other than playing the bass. Maybe I'll try to emulate her!
Seriously...She's amazing...!!

You can see a few very large cracks on the top and back plates. We assume the bass hit the deck several times.
But still very impressive!

She started with a ukelele, then mandolin, then tenor guitar, dreadnought guitar, etc...
Seriously - that is an amazing video.
